Okay, so here we are counting atoms, and we want to see how long it takes to count one mole of atoms.
00:07
So if we can count two atoms per second, and we know how many a mole of atoms is.
00:18
We know that one mole is equal to six.
00:27
Or actually, we can go ahead and convert this.
00:30
We know we have one mole of atoms, but a mole is just telling us we have a certain amount of atoms.
00:37
That certain amount is obligatory's number.
00:40
So in order to get the actual count of atoms, it'd be 6 .022 times 10 to the 23rd atoms.
00:50
So we know it's going to take a long time because it's a lot of atoms.
00:53
We also know that we can count two atoms per one second.
01:05
And we counted continually for 24 hours every day, and we want to compare this with the age of earth, which is 4 .5 times 10 to the 9th years.
01:13
So let's go ahead and convert this time into years, and that way we can make the comparison a little bit easier.
01:20
So right now, if i look, my units will be in seconds after i multiply this all out...
